A preview of the Curling competition at the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games, with international curling commentator and expert, John Cullen.

John chats about what makes curling one of the great sports at the Winter Olympics, why he loves the game, what to keep a close eye on, and takes us through the infamous Rumble at High Park curling scandal.

The Australian mixed doubles team of Tahli Gill and Dean Hewitt had just missed out on qualification for Milan, and John runs through the who's who in Italy, including Estonia's Mixed Doubles pairing Marie Kaldvee and Harri Lill, Canada's Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant and Italy's Amos Mosaner and Stefania Constantini.

The incredible form of Canada's Rachel Homan and the pressure that comes with the expectation.

The experience and personality of Canada's Brad Jacobs in the Men's Fours and continuity with Mark Kennedy and Ben Hebert.

An open men's field, including Great Britain and Scotland's Bruce Mouat, Yannick Schwaller of Switzerland, and strong teams from China, Norway and Sweden, as well as the energy from USA and Daniel Casper.

Curling starts on Wednesday the 4th of February at the Cortina Curling Olympic Centre.
